Top 5 Ways to Remember Our Loved Ones…and why it’s healthy to do so regularly:

1. Say Their Name Out Loud

There’s power in naming.
Don’t be afraid to speak their name in daily life.
Whether it’s telling a story, sharing a laugh, or simply saying “I miss you,”...their name keeps their presence alive.
It tells your nervous system: it’s okay to feel. It’s okay to remember.

2. Share Their Stories With Others

When you tell a story about someone who’s passed, you’re passing on their legacy.
You’re allowing their spirit to ripple outward, touching lives they never met.
These stories become healing bridges...for you, and for those who hear them.

3. Celebrate Their Anniversaries

Birthdays. Death days. Holidays.
Create simple rituals...a candle, a walk, a favorite song.
Marking these days helps you process, honor, and re-establish your connection.

4. Keep Something That Reminds You of Them

A photo, a piece of clothing, a letter, a scent.
These items hold memory.
They’re not about attachment...they’re about anchoring.
When you’re feeling lost or overwhelmed, these mementos gently remind you:
Love doesn’t end. It just changes form.

5. Let Yourself Grieve When It Rises

Grief doesn’t work on a timeline.
Sometimes a wave hits years later...and that’s okay.
Let yourself feel it.
Cry. Smile. Breathe.
Feeling doesn’t mean you’re broken...it means you’re still connected.
And that’s love doing its work.
